Yet another month has passed with Singapore’s bank lending rate declining as both business and consumer loans took a hit from the effects of the health-turned-economic crisis.

Total loans from the domestic banking unit – which captures lending in all currencies, but mainly reflects Singapore-dollar lending – came in at $678.7 billion in July.

This is down 0.2% from the $680.1 billion disbursed in June and marks the metric’s fifth consecutive month of decline.
